While the science aspect (chemistry, biology, and physics) and mathematics (calculus and algebra) is a breeze to figure out, the engineering and technology aspects are less straightforward. The skills coupled with critical thinking are taught in these subjects.

So did that mean we were “finished” with calculus? Somewhere along the way we built out discrete calculus , asymptotic expansions and integral transforms. And in Version 14 there are significant advances around calculus. Another advance has to do with expanding the range of “pre-packaged” calculus operations.

They should also explore various branches of science such as biology, chemistry, physics, and earth sciences. Students should be taught mathematical concepts such as algebra, geometry, statistics, and calculus. In science, students should learn about the scientific method and how to conduct experiments to test hypotheses.

Any integral of an algebraic function can in principle be done in terms of our general DifferentialRoot objects. When you do operations on Around numbers the “errors” are combined using a certain calculus of errors that’s effectively based on Gaussian distributions—and the results you get are always in some sense statistical.

Mathematics is normally done at the level of “specific mathematical concepts” (like, say, algebraic equations or hyperbolic geometry)—that are effectively the “populated places” (or “populated reference frames”) of metamathematical space.

Reflecting on my own self-identification, I had a vague sense it had something to do with Holifield’s Algebra II class, which I took in ninth grade. Still, Holifield helped make math practical for her when she took Algebra II with him, she says. But a case of “senioritis” caused her to drop out of high school calculus.

All sorts of (often ornate) formalism was developed in mathematical logic, with combinators arriving in 1920 , and lambda calculus in 1935. Some of those transformations effectively incorporate “factual knowledge” (like knowledge of mathematics, or chemistry, or geography).

The fall of 2021 involved really leaning into the new multicomputational paradigm , among other things giving a long list of where it might apply : metamathematics, chemistry, molecular biology, evolutionary biology, neuroscience, immunology, linguistics, economics, machine learning, distributed computing. Let’s talk first about chemistry.

It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus). In 2015 Ed told me a nice story about his time at Caltech: In 1952–53, I was a student in Linus Pauling’s class where he lectured Freshman Chemistry at Caltech. It was all algebra.
